- In this video we show you how to pour a concrete slab inside of a garage for a new bedroom. Prior to us coming it was already formed and setup, all we had to do was drop the reinforcement and pour it out! Don't forget to LIKE, SHARE, SUBSCRIBE and COMMENT any questions you may have!

Yes!!! I’ve been waiting for a garage conversion episode, thank you very much.
Hope you enjoyed it!
This guy must be on the HOA board to get this approval
Exactly. They will deny you wanting to change the color of your mailbox keys.
I think all the neighbors will be doing it now in all of the HOA's since they won't allow a ADU
@@OdellCompleteConcrete ADU?
@@rchavez5056 additional unit
@@rchavez5056 Accessory Dwelling Unit. AKA a mother in law suite, or Casita.
That room will add value to the property for sure.
Yes I think so
Another great vid. Thanks.
TY
I've really been enjoying your vids. Keep them coming!
Thanks, will do!
Quick and easy. Cool vid
I concur
Great job💪💪👑👑
TY
Making it look easy brother. Great video and good looking work!
Thanks 👍
👍good work
TY
Nice job
Thank you! Cheers!
I love your videos man!
TY
Thank you for making these videos. It’s like How It’s Made but better. I’m just a software programmer with nothing to do with professional construction, but I find the information useful. I plan on doing room additions, so foundation knowledge is relevant. I am considering doing a permanent wood foundation as it seems more forgiving for a DIYer. Can you do a video on concrete vs wood foundation?
I've never heard of a wood foundation.
Maybe a raised foundation stem wall with wood flooring and piers.
I like like the raised stem wall foundation better, because you can work under the house when needed, without breaking the concrete out.
My blue glider has a geared ⚙ head. Makes it easy to use.
I need that one
Nice, keep the "learning tutorials" coming. Curious, with the cement delivery, who is responsible for depositing the cement, your crew or the driver of the cement truck?
PS: You also normally create saw cuts, to prevent cracking. How do you prevent cracking in this scenario?
Its a small enough area it may not crack at all and if it does it will be under flooring
Thank you
You're welcome
@@OdellCompleteConcrete thank you again, for engaging with your audience. I work LA, OC, IE maybe one day I’ll meet you and your team. Thank you for your valuable content and keep it coming!
"The homeowner is turning this three car garage into a two car"
- every red blooded male in the USA: NOOOOOOOOO!!!!
I hear that
Only to let the 29 yo kid move back in… park the husbands car on the street… dude
Seriously! Awful idea
@Sydney12 And last week Newsom signed legislation cutting the knees off local governments by eliminating their ability to add additional areas zoned for single family housing. He also signed a bill approving up to four ADU's on existing single family lots. CA is insane.
Do you use the tampers at all ? Rolling or traditional jitter bugs? Always great watching your crew
Yes when I use big rock at low slump
My existing garage floor has cracks in it (no bigger than 1/8 inch) do I need to do a thing about that before floating a new concrete floor like you did?
I don’t understand why such HOA is bothered by how the inside of someones house looks like. What’s the point of owning a house if you still have to ask someone or even a whole board whether you can change something. I would never put my money in such place. Nice job on the concrete again anyway!
I concur, I wouldn't invest in that kind of set up, but for some types of people it's works out well.
Keeps bad neighbors in line to a certain extent. Only reason i could see.
@RAH Capital If you pay a lot of money for a house, you aren't going to have a "scum bag loser" move next door.
You don't see drug addicts living in 250-300k properties. If your neighbor is a dick, a HOA isn't going to stop that.
@@Ultimatelocke you'd be surprised. Some people will turn it into a 'rental', some may sell to foreigners form other countries (and their customs in their home country are to be obnoxious, crude, disrespectful because that is wall they've ever known so they don't think it is offensive to anyone here), or "other". I personally don't like them and I have heard horror stories about them, but I see the need in certain situations.
@@billsmith9249 In Australia, a HOA would be called a body corporate - but only applies to blocks of units or apartments. Otherwise the local councils have a unbelievable amount of power anyway. I can't put a 2 man tent out the back if family kids stay over because it would need council approval (toilet ratio per person), nor can I park on my front nature strip or even erect a fence on my property unless the neighbours next door gives their permission as adjoining the property boundary. Hell - I been fined by the local council for not voting - $70.
Thanks! We are doing a similar project. How long it took for the floor to dry before one can lay the 7mm SPC tiles or vinyl tiles? TIA

Are there any issues to look for when pouring over concrete. A friend of mine said it might have major problems when pouring over another concrete bottom. I was planning on turning my garage into a bedroom so not jack hammering out the original concrete would help a lot.
If the floor under looks structurally sound it should not be a problem. Just don't pour too thick. If the concrete below has issues then be prepared for those issues to telescope through.
The Redgaurd also acts as a crack preventitive
Why are they using the end bay? Wouldn't you use the one next to the house's live area?
Its in the center of the house
@@OdellCompleteConcrete You don't have a full-front view
How are lumber and concrete prices behaving lately? Are you still spraying on the Mobil 1 Synthetic?
I can't change the oil fast enough so I went to a Green Alternative
IF the next owner wanted to take it back to a garage would that redguard be a good barrier to keep the two slabs from adhering to each other? Or are they one now?
Good point, yes it would
👍💪😎
Can Odell pour a 132-ft driveway monolithically?
Sure
Redgard is nearly $50 a gallon, from the looks of it they used a lot
Your probably right
$150 for a 3.5 gallon bucket at Home despot.
@@nmatthew7469 - I price checked it, try $159 before taxes. SMH! Maybe $150 for the 4th of July Special! lol
add to this - the cost of having best builder in Orange County
high 5 pray beleive recieve
Get itbon
Stud
Home owners association I imagine have vetted Odell previous work and been approved - preferred contractor status?
I've worked on a few HOA's, never had a problem
@@OdellCompleteConcrete Not suggesting you have, my point is HOA's don't just let anyone carry out work
True, you have to have the credentials.
What I meant was there easy to work with if you have the time.
What is the price for a job like this
2500
Great video once again! Only thing is red guard is about 150$ dollars. Lol
I heard 50 a gallonl
That red guard ain’t no $30 lol
Owner probably spent $150 3 little buckets
My thoughts exactly.
50. A gallon
five bedroom you'd have to think AirBnB or group house or immigrant worker house.
really surprised a HOA went with that even if it was for single family currently.
Mother in law room
Shoot that red guard is high dollar
Thats what Im hearing 50.00 a gallon
@@OdellCompleteConcrete yep and it's super thick almost like a gel so a gallon doesn't get you that far plus you have to add at least two coats of it. They probably spent around 400 or more just to paint that space
well, the value of this house just went to the poopers in my book. I will sacrifice living space for additional garage space, not the other way around.
Depends on your needs
am i the only one who doesnt hold the funny trowel backwards?!?!
and me
More like $300 in Red Guard 😭
50 a gallon
"$10 of material or maybe even $30 dollars?" lmao Are you kidding? There's about 250' of coverage there at $50-60 per gallon and 1 gallon covers 50-60 square feet.
Wow that's expensive
@@OdellCompleteConcrete I know right?!? They weren't messin' around were they? Completely overdone. lol
I think so
👀🇷🇺👍
Sweet 👍
3rd?
Right Drummer
In the money.
TY
Any realtor, at least in TX will tell you to NOT! EVER!!!! convert a garage to living space. You just destroyed the original value of the home. It DOES NOT!!!!! increase the value of your home. It takes a valued feature, THE FUCKING GARAGE! away.
Do it if you are planning to live in the house for the rest of your life and never sell it.
They still have 2 more garages.
In this area every room can be rented out for 1200 a month
Yeah HOA really sucks
They are great if you dont want to do your own exterior maintenance
@@OdellCompleteConcrete I want to do what i when I want
First
Fantastic work as always. Wish I could contract you and your team in Texas.
Winner
TY
I wish you could also
I rather be homeless than live in a HOA, how the hell are you gonna buy a house you have zero say over?😂 you pay to get fined and bombarded with rules 😂😂😂😂😂
Different strokes for different fokes
HOA.. LOL... pay money to people to tell you what you can and more likely can’t do with your own property... no thanks.
Basically
i will never understood you, americans. You build houses from wood, and put alot of concrete in garden. We in europe build houses from concrete, and make our gardens green. That concrete look cheap and boring. We use paving in garden, and it can look nice and intresting. Not just half of garden in grey mass.
Look at the pyramids of Egypt, the bigger the rocks the longer lasting
the concrete garden is a driveway and I've noticed in America that the garden extends right to the house foundation whereas in the UK and Ireland at least it's concrete or tarmac up against the house.
Maybe you should come over and check the place out. Get away from those grim European high rises.
